As of the time of writing this review, out of the 4 reviews written there are two salty 1-star reviews that do not do this school justice. One commentor is mad they can't bring their own tablet to school and the other seems to have more to the story than just the side presented regarding mental illness and bullying. If you look at the scores of all the categories on this site, you can see this school is exceeding the national average in every category. I am thankful my child goes to this school and hopeful the future score will more accurately reflect the quality of the school.

This school overall is just terrible. Teachers/principals/guidance counselors only care about money. I would give this school negative stars if I could.

I would say this is probably the best place to learn in the non charter public school system. It has issues but if education is your goal this is the best place to go. It is what you make it

Wonderful experience for three of my children at MHS! My children were very successful there and had great teachers!

This school makes it seem as though it wants the best for its students. It trys to act as if it can keep up with the times by installing smartboards in class rooms, but godforbid if a student wants to bring in a tablet in order to keep their lives more organized and to help them accel in classes. just a few minutes ago a held a brief meeting with the principle whhere he told me i could not use my tablet , in which i made clear i would hold all responsibility for , in my AP Classes in order to help me accel. In stead he said it would be a distraction to me and it will wind up lost or stolen, like he some how kneew what kind of person i am or the responsibility to have. i inforemed him of how i could take off any games and leave it with just the note pad app., but to him it wasnt good enough. So to really cap this i think its safe to say that they dont care about kids education because had he said yes id be in class learning right now instead of using the fulltime accessablie computers, But i guess they are not distracking huih?!
